GNU Libtasn1 is a standalone library written in C for manipulating ASN.1
objects including DER/BER encoding/decoding.  GNU Libtasn1 is used by
GnuTLS to handle X.509 structures and by GNU Shishi to handle Kerberos
V5 structures.

* Noteworthy changes in release 2.10 (2011-10-25) [stable]
- lib: Small optimization, possibly working around gcc/valgrind issue.
- build: Update gnulib files.
- asn1Coding: actually implement the -c parameter.
- asn1Decoding: the -c parameter serves no purpose, remove it.
- doc: Add examples to asn1Coding and asn1Decoding description.
